‘The CIA killed Kennedy,’ says ex-agent

Antonio Veciana

Rejecting
conspiracy theories implicating Cuban leader Fidel Castro, a former
militant foe of the Cuban government, said in a newspaper interview last
week that his former allies at the CIA were behind the assassination of
President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963.

Veciana’s
statements are significant because he is known to have worked closely
with the CIA for many years fighting the Castro regime. He has also long
asserted that he saw a CIA man whom he knew as ‘Maurice Bishop’ in the
company of Lee Harvey Oswald in September 1963, two months before Oswald
allegedly shot and killed Kennedy.

Veciana’s
statements put him in agreement with one of his life-long enemies,
Fabian Escalante, retired chief of counterintelligence for the Cuba’s
CIA, known as the Diregencia General de Inteligencia, or DGI. Escalante has said the DGI concluded the CIA and Cuban exiles were behind JFK’s assassination.

“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been
bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle.
We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has
captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves,
that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you
almost never get it back.”
